<Tell me oh great technical wizard, but just how do multiple switches in the network fabric:> First of all, you're using terminology that is inconsistent in the first place by saying switch fabric in you earlier post and now saying network fabric. ===== this is what you said in earlier post==========> Gary, Whats really funny about his view is the lack of knowledge about how the 'underlying switched fabric' does its job. Its now called PNNI =================== And, btw, the term network fabric is not a commonly used terminology in the ATM world. ========== this is what was said and asked any ATM engineer (even a junior eng) they'll tell you it is correct ========= The paths in the switching system (if ATM switch) are typically established by a number of ways depending on the switch architecture. Some examples will be shared memory, shared Bus, Crossbar, multistage, Banyan, etc. The connection paths across the ATM network(s) can be computed based on topology (this topology may be part of PNNI topology database propagation).
